    Paw prints

    take a look at the toe pads. If you draw a line between them, do they cross in the rear pad or before it? Cat tracks will cross on the rear pad, dog tracks ahead of it. I also agree with claws...cats retract theirs, dogs can't

    Nettles ????

    you all may laugh or snicker, but try rubbing penetrating oil on the welts. PB blaster, WD40, whatever you have. It'll take the sting out.

    IH 300U wiring....last question I hope.

    Dave - PM me and I'll send you a copy of the operators manual Edit: crap, forgot YT doesn't do PM's. Let me figure out another way for us to email each other without posting our address for the spammers to see. This post was edited by tperson on 07/28/2023 at 08:07 am.

    solder stick

    As others have said, this may be because your iron is too small/too cold to heat the joint up quickly. It may also be caused by lack of flux. Slobber a little flux on your ends before you insert them into the terminal or after you've made the splice (I use the paste Ruby Fluid from Ace), hold a...

    Jump starter packs

    many moons ago at work, someone left a small power inverter plugged into the cigarette lighter of the work truck...for months. Well, when we went to start it, the dome light wouldn't even turn on (D-E-D, dead). The low-cost lithium ion jump pack we had (think $50 harbor freight special) started...

    Lawn Mower tires

    I'd caution you about changing the tire height. As you raise the rear of the mower with a taller tire, you'll change the pitch (rake) of the deck and it WILL affect cutting performance. Before you switch to a 24" tire, make sure you have at least 0.5" [(24-23)/2=0.5] of adjustment on the rear...

    premixed gasoline

    In my opinion, the real advantages to canned gasoline is no ethanol and conveniencethat s about it. I have a hard time paying $20/qt for something I can make at home for a fraction of the cost. No, I don t run my 2-stroke stuff weekly and probably only use 1-2 gallons of mixed gas a year in my...

    Comparing voltmeters

    Couldn't agree more. A 117 will do almost everything non-specialized-automotive related (house/farm/general use)...for those oddball automotive tasks, they make a 87V.

    HOMEMADE CATTLE PROD

    Years ago my, now passed, uncle had a trenching business and one of his pet peeves was dogs using his truck tires as a fire hydrant. To re-train and re-direct them, he rigged a commercial hot-shot up to the truck battery, attached one lead to the frame/body and the other lead to a weight he...

    Think I have a valve leak

    I agree, carb problems. Personally, here's what I'd do: 1) buy a new Harbor Freight 212 Predator engine. $119 today for cyber monday (https://www.harborfreight.com/search?q=212%20predator%20engine) 2) stop down at the local airport and buy some aviation fuel. Yeah, it's expensive...like...
